Description

The superconducting nano-wire single-photon detector of integrated optics film filter
Technical field
The invention belongs to optical detector technology fields, are related to a kind of superconducting nano-wire single-photon detector, more particularly to one The superconducting nano-wire single-photon detector of kind integrated optics film filter.
Background technology
Superconducting nano-wire single-photon detectors (Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detector, SNSPD) it is the novel single-photon detectors that developed recently gets up, visible light may be implemented near infrared band Efficient single photon detection.Due to the advantages such as its high-quantum efficiency, low dark counting, high detection rate, low time jitter, SNSPD Be applied to rapidly quantum information technology, laser communication, star in the applications such as ranging, bioluminescence detection, Depth Imaging.
SNSPD mainly uses low-temperature superconducting ultrathin film material, such as NbN, Nb, NbTiN, WSi etc..Typical thickness is about The meandered nanowire structure of 5-10nm, device generally use 100nm or so width.Be placed in low temperature environment when SNSPD work (< 4K), device is in superconducting state, and is subject to certain bias current Ib, Ib and is slightly less than device critical current Ic.When single photon enters When being mapped on the Nano-structure in device, Cooper pair can be broken, forms a large amount of thermoelectron, to form local hot spot, hot spot Since Joule heat is diffused under the action of bias current Ib, finally so that Nano-structure, which locally quenches, is formed with resistance area.It Thermionic energy transmits simultaneously relaxation by electric phonon interaction afterwards, then is paired into the Cooper pair of superconducting state again.Due to superconduction The thermal relaxation time of material is very short, therefore after SNSPD receives single photon, will generate one quickly at device both ends Electric impulse signal, to realize the detecting function of single photon.
Dark counting is one of major parameter of single-photon detector.It refers to the error count unrelated with signal photon. The source of SNSPD dark countings includes two aspects.One is dark counting caused by the movement of SNSPD nano wire Vortexes, this portion Divide and is referred to as intrinsic dark counting.Intrinsic dark counting is related with device operation current, only in operating current very close to critical current When just generate, and counting rate and bias current have exponent relation.The SNSPD countings of other non-signal photon triggerings are referred to collectively as non- Levy dark counting.Including following possibility:(1) dark counting that the heat radiation of fiber optic materials itself introduces;(2) SNSPD is working When, the various light of working environment (heat) radiation has enters optical fiber as stray light triggering SNSPD meters through optical fiber clad on a small quantity Number.Extrinsic dark counting can be equivalent to a certain amount of photon radiation, and the detection efficient of the dark counting and detector that introduce is at just Than.Dark counting is for many single photon detections using most important.For long-distance optical fiber quantum communications, dark count Several levels is to determine it at code signal-to-noise ratio and the key parameter of communication distance.Do not solve intrinsic dark count at all still at present Several effective ways, generally use reduce the means of SNSPD bias currents.Under these conditions, extrinsic dark counting just plays Conclusive influence.Japanese Shibata et al. proposes the method for introducing optical fiber filter under low temperature in a fiber, Ke Yiyou The extrinsic dark counting of reduction of effect.But apparent decaying (about 3dB) also is produced to signal light simultaneously, directly affect device Detection efficient.
Also there are other filtering modes at present, but all have device design requirement excessively complicated, to be unfavorable for filter Realization and the shortcomings that cost reduction.
